Sweden recently legalized same-sex marriage, and to mark that historic event, Swedish techno-house musician Adrian Lux decided to take a different approach to his new music video for “Can’t Sleep.” Rather than having the music set to the usual images of “sexually arousing girls in bikinis dancing in front of a green screen-cliché” that you always see in dance music videos, Lux decided to have “Can’t Sleep” tell a subtle romantic story between two men. In his video, the solitary loneliness of a haunting sleepless night is finally broken by a tender, grande bisou.

Happy Gay Pride Week!

Includes a number of color photographs, and the techno-house music video, “Can’t Sleep.”

    • Thanks much for your comment, NuclearLullaby. Yes, I think Lux did a good job of presenting this quite tastefully. Maybe it helped that he comes from Sweden, with a culture which presently seems to more openly embrace the rights and needs of people from social minority groups. Again, thanks for your comments.

      Best wishes to you.

    • Good for him! Why not put gay love stories in music videos? I am not gay,but I support gays,I think people should be able to love anyone they wish to! (although I am against relationships within someone's own family or sex with animals) This makes gays seem more human,& that's what really needs to be shown!Because they are just people that love each other!
